I have a friend who said when you climb the highest mountain peaks, you have to be mentally prepared that one day you may not be able to come back alive. He eventually died doing what he loved in 2019.
What a legend rock on 💪
Ini bomba pon xberani nk naik
I bet that Chinese man will be shamed for having an Indian man save him from death. Especially being that India and China both want claim to that mountainous region as its own
These sherpas rarely get enough praise. They're all total heros. That guy is carrying someone weighing 70kg+, including an O2 cylinder. They regularly carry loads of 50kg, which is pushing it.
Buat apa nak tawan puncak dunia, bazir duit & bahayakan nyawa……sedangkan ada banyak kerja berfaedah…guna duit untuk tolong orang miskin, beri makanan, tempat perlindungan & pelajaran kepada mangsa perang.
well, Dang..now everyone thinks they can be rescued … especially those tourist rich climbers.
The Sherpa's are Boss of all the great peaks
Oh behalf of Malaysia 🇲🇾 we Thank you so much Sherpas 🇳🇵 🤍💐🙏
Thanks so much to the Chinese climber as well who decided to help 🤍🙏💐
Sherpa hero. Slava ukraine
Stop going up there and spend your money below.
Superhero💪💪💪 thank you
The gentleman rescuer truly makes me proud.
For the rest of his life he can reflect back on this incredible feat and the life saved. ❤
Those guys are so much underpaid although they risk their lives for other people every day!
At the end of my day from work I go home eat dinner and watch tv with a cup of coffee and sometimes a slice of tiramisu and then sleep.
project possible
sherpas are the best.
let's all unite and save the planet ❤️
Fools. We made it once up top, that's enough. Leave the mountain alone, she doesn't want us there.

Both the sherpas and Chinese climbers have done their equal parts thanks to both parties. Can you imagine you are 800mtrs close to your dream project but you let it go away for strangers life and the Sherpas who convinced that money and summit can be earned next time but life can’t be saved another time… just wow
Wonder how many folks the Sherpas carried to the peak yet the folks claim victory 😅😂
That Sherpa better be well compensated for all his labor and trouble. I hope he never has back problems. I swear some of these climbers must be egotistical and selfish
Sherpas are superhuman. They will always help climbers aslong as they're alive.
They will leave anyone who has died (as they should). this is why Everest is FULL of frozen corpses, latest victim is that Australian guy that was doing it for charity.
He will be left up there forever like the rest.
Blessed the sherpa and his chinese client who agreed to abandon the summit!
TRUE LIFE SUPER HERO
Ego gonna get people killed.
I don't get it. I just don't get it.
RESPECT💪💪💪
-87F is insane.
Sherpaman!, is the real superman.
The worlds most disgusting destination.
Bárcsak.. 😪🖤
The real Death Stranding game 😥
If that man is rich, he is obligated to pay crazy amount to the team that rescued him. I would.
unbelievable.
God bless those courageous Sherpa who do an unbelievable job on Everest. Without the Sherpa people no one would Summit 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂. The Sherpa people are a great race and assesst to have on your expedition team. Please always show respect to the Sherpa people all the time. They are only here to save your life for a measly $5,000 USD.
It's hard to convey the extreme personal risk the sherpa took in hauling him down. One mis-step in some areas and both would have fallen to their deaths. That's why this is a very rare rescue. Also, summit climbers don't carry "spare" anything, especially oxygen or hot tea. If either is required to revive a fallen person, it's coming out of a climbers limited rations. Also, it's no surprise that a sherpa did this and not a paying climber. A paying climber would be giving up the summit, for which they paid about $100,000 or more. The morality, and risk, of saving a fallen climber is the topic of much Everest debate. Every year, summit climbers have to pass unrescued frozen bodies from the previous year(s).
A mysterious Msian. What we know, there was one Msian that died on Everest & buried just recently at his home state & another Muhammad Hawari Hashim still missing…
Heroes!!!! Our BIG BIG thanx to you !
I have no desire to climb Everest.
There the real climbers!. The rest just rich people looking for a deadly thrill. Why don't you carry ypur own stuff and take the REAL challenge like them.
I'm sure he got a nice $5 tip after that….
